Well, it was not that bad. Think it was a cool detail with those E36 tails :) Here in Denmark theres still a lot of them, just the european version off course.. The 3 door is the most popular.. It is the model under here:

Nice, yeah I'm very very familiar with the Corolla all over the world! But I tried to learn from my mistakes and not make them on the IS lol. Gotta keep it looking like an IS!

Those headlights are BRIGHT. are you using stock ballast or aftermarket?

TobiasSing 05-21-13 06:27 AM

Thanks guys.

Ballasts are stock, but the bulbs are a little brighter, and of course the custom projectors.

Here is a set of professional driving photos that I bought recently. I had to buy them after I saw how awesome they came out, unlike any pics I've ever taken.

The car is being driven HARD around corners, but it still rides perfectly flat and balanced, the suspension is perfect for corners! No rubbing, scraping, or bottoming out.

The pics are unedited, not even resized. Click them for HUGE full size. lol. Enjoy!

What happened to your rear bumper? It looks like the paint is silky..

TobiasSing 05-21-13 10:34 AM

Spray paint. After I wrecked, I repaired the quarterpanels and replaced the bumper&tail lights. So I spray painted these areas, as well as the lip kit. It's a perfect match, but I didn't bother shining it up lol. Which is fine, you can see the rear bumper has some marks on it from when I backed into a wall. And on the front lip, the paint's just gonna get messed up anyway (I had just hit something on the highway in the dark that morning). lol. I'll redo it eventually.

TheDane 05-22-13 06:50 AM

The color matches pretty good and it was first at the near picture I noticed it :)

bacon22 05-22-13 07:26 AM

Yeah normally it's not very noticeable in the pics, only in person, but of course these are some good pics lol.

It's definitely a great, reliable car with enough street cred, plenty of aftermarket support. It's not that light though, I miss how light my Corolla was lol.

Ebp609si 05-22-13 08:25 AM

Trust me i remember the lightness of my old honda's lol

TobiasSing 05-22-13 08:26 AM

Yeah lol. The IS is heavy, but with the right suspension, it corners VERY tight and solid.
